The growth of Nesta's character and her confrontation of her self-destructive behavior may not appeal to everyone, but I ended up falling in love with her as a character. Cassian is my favorite male SJM character across all three of her series. The found family Nesta makes for herself with Emerie and Gwyn is beautiful to watch unfold. Be warned, Rhys in this book is not the Rhys of the first four ACOTAR books-- whether that is due to Feyre's unreliable narration or Nesta's disdain for her brother-in-law, I was shocked at the transformation.
The only two issues I had with the book are the withholding of pertinent medical information from Feyre which takes away all her agency in the name of "protection". And I hate that a series all about the different strengths of women can end with a total sacrifice of power in favor of "settling down with a family" for both Feyre and Nesta (hinted at in the future).
It will be interesting to see how ACOTAR 6 deals with this and which relationship will be the spotlight of the next book.
